Basicaly, I've choosen this post because I think that it's where I've talked about one of my favorite things, and as a result, I enjoyed and gave my best while writting this post.

Sincerely, I did not enjoyed writting the post, and almost all my work here has been done without will and running when the clock was running out of time. So for these last posts, I tried to talk about more personal things. That post let me rest about the other things, and I could afford the time that I spent writting there, because I loved the subject and had so many good memories with that game.


ORAL POST:

For the oral presentation, I've choosen this one because it's one of the most recent ones, but it still needs improvement. The main thing that I need to improve is my temperament at the time of recording. I often get nervous and it reflectson the oral presentation.


In conclusion, that's my final reflection, I'm a bit sad because I could not see some friends as much as I would like, but after all the hard work, I'm happy to be where I am.

Sergi out.

Post Comparison

My first blog's post is called "Rebel Song", I did it two years ago as the first batxillerat task. It's difficult to compare it now, since I haven't written a lot in it.


The rebel song that I've choosen is "Numb" of Linkin Park, my favourite music band.

It talks about he's under the control of another person, and he wants to be more dependent and be like himself.

A fragment of the song:

"Can't you see that you're smothering me?

Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control

'Cause everything that you thought I would be,

Has fallen apart right in front of you

(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)

And every second I waste is more than I can take"


But I could say that I haven't changed that much since that, I like the same things andstuff, but it's true that I've improved my english.

Subject: Death Penalty

Dear Mr. President of the United States of America

We are writing to complain about the death penalty, because it is not ethic and it violates some of the established human rights.

Firstly, we need to admit, although death penalty is an inconvenient tradition, it can calm down the population if the person that got killed done a terrible crime, and those criminals pay for its bad actions, also it can help breaking down some conflicts.

On the other hand, it could create some problems between people in states where death penalty is legal, and they may sign up for a new campaign and loose support if the demands are not met, in addition, death penalty doesn't respect the human rights.

To sum up, we think it should be forbidden for the common good.

Our sincerely, Sergi and Jordina

VideoGame review

Starcraft: Legacy of the Void was launched at November 2015, and it was the long-waited outcome of the Starcraft series, which started at 1997.

In this final game, you'll be playing as Artanis, the Hierarch of the Protoss, the ancient stellar race that is becoming closer to extinction. The Protoss are few and they are divided, and Artanis' mission will be to ensure the survival of its race, unfortunately, it won't be easy, as ancient and dark things will come up.

Now it's the time to reclaim Aiur, the Protoss' homeworld, and with it, their legacy,

En Taro Tassadar!

Movie Review

The movie that I'll review this time is called Operation Valkyrie.

Plot:

Due to the infamous actions of the Nazi Germany, the discontent has grown among Nazi officers and soldiers, and for the sake of their country, they make a plot with the objective of killing Hitler and make a peace deal with the Allies.

The colonel Claus Von Sttauffenberg is one of the unhappy Nazi officers, and he joins the plot so his family and the rest of Germany can live at peace. He takes an important  role since the beginning of his incorporation to the plot, since he has good commanding skills. 

In the end, the "Operation Valkyrie" fires, and a lot of tension is felt...

Book review

This time I'll be reviewing a book that I've recently read.

The book that I'll review is called the "The Mist", and it's written by Stephen King.

Plot: 

One day at the town of Maine, a strong storm forces everyone to hide in their respective basements and spend the night there. Dave and his family woke up, and saw that the environment was severally damaged by the storm, but the most disturbing thing was the appearance of a white mist, which moved in an unnatural way. 

Dave went to the supermarket with his son and neighbor, despite that  he never thought about what was going to happen, and that it was going to be the last time which he would see some of his beloved ones...
